Picture Butte Lions Club donates $50K to visually impaired students at University of Lethbridge
LETHBRIDGE, AB – The Picture Butte Lions Club has donated $50,000 to the University of Lethbridge (U of L) to make a difference for students living with a disability.
According to Lions Club board member, Doug Jackson, the original mandate of the Lions Group, which dates back to the 1980s, was to help the visually impaired.
Now, the latest donation from the club will go towards a scholarship for students who may face more barriers than others.
Jackson said it’s all thanks to a long-time club member, Ron LeClaire, who passed away in 2011.
